Staff & Accounts
Give each team member their own login so every transaction is tied to a named staff member. SnapOS supports PIN-based staff logins and quick QR code sign-in for shared devices.
Your Business Code
Every SnapOS business has a unique 6-character Business Code, found in Settings → Business. Staff need this code when joining the business on a new device. Share it only with trusted team members.
Adding a Staff Member
- 1
Go to Settings → Staff
The Staff screen lists all accounts linked to your business. Tap the + button (top-right) to invite a new member.

Staff joins on their device
The staff member opens SnapOS, taps 'Sign in as Staff', enters the Business Code, and logs in with their email or PIN.
Admins can access all settings including business details, staff management, and financial reports. Cashiers can process sales and view basic reports only.
Staff Roles & Permissions
- 1
Admin
Full access: manage items, categories, customers, reports, cash register, settings, and other staff accounts.
- 2
Cashier
Restricted access: process POS sales, view today's transactions, open/close register, and print receipts. Cannot access business settings or full reports.
Assign the Cashier role to part-time or seasonal staff to limit their access to sensitive business data.
PIN Login
- 1
Set a PIN for a staff member
When creating or editing a staff account, enter a 4–6 digit PIN. The staff member can also change their own PIN from Account Settings.

Signing in with a PIN
On the login screen, tap 'Use PIN'. Enter the Business Code (if prompted) and then the PIN. This is faster for cashiers on shared POS tablets.
QR Code Login
- 1
Admin generates a QR session
In Settings → Staff, tap the QR icon next to a staff member's name. A temporary QR code appears on screen (valid for 5 minutes).
- 2
Staff scans the QR code
The staff member opens SnapOS on their device and taps 'Scan QR to Sign In'. Point the camera at the admin's screen. They are logged in instantly — no password needed.
QR login is ideal for onboarding a new cashier quickly at the start of a shift without sharing passwords.
